The elections produced an increased majority for the governing coalition between the Radicals and the left Republicans, which had held power under the premierships of Maurice Rouvier and Ferdinand Sarrien since January 1905.
Sarrien resigned on 20 October for reasons of health. Georges Clemenceau, also a Radical, replaced him, and remained premier until July 1909.

gollark: The weird spacing and the `state` array. Or perhaps I just pattern-matched it to "vaguely coltranious" somehow and my brain is trying to rationalize it.
